Two Cauliflowers - 25 weeks today (7 months pregnant)


Today the babies are each the size of a head of cauliflower. They are supposed to be weighing in at about a pound and a half (1lb8oz), which means they are right on track, having weighed in at 1lb6oz each on Monday!

Other fun facts about these guys: while they have very little control over their hands, their hands are "discovering" their environment through touch and feel, and they already have finger nails.  Their ears are fully formed and functional, as is their equilibrium: they can tell if they are upside down or right side up.

They also know when they are in a loud hockey arena - they got really excited at the Kings vs Coyotes, Rangers and Senators games that I was able to attend. They also went wild when we were taking off on our flights to and from Boston - I suspect it is the loud noise and vibration.  Otherwise, they are growing some hair and filling out with fat. In 10 weeks, it will be safe for them to be born! My goodness!!!

Today is Grandpa G's birthday - Happy Birthday to Grandpa G!!! Lots of love from California!
